This blog captures my musings and ramblings as I come across zillions of things in this beautiful world. While I scribble my feelings here, I would request readers to drop in a word or two about themselves or their likes/dislikes to make the most of this interactive space.
Happy reading…

Have written enough on life, laughter and love. This post is more serious and somber. Read through my poem and you will understand why life becomes stranger than fiction.PS: This is my first attempt at poetry and I admit it’s very bland. Please bear through this and do let me know whatever comes to your mind after reading this.Here it goes:

Jack met Jill,On top of a hill,And then,They both walked together.

Holding hands,Through thick and thin,They seemed to love each other.Jack called her God,Jill blushed a bit,And there was love all over.

All things were good,All things were fun,They ate and drank together.

They danced,They jived,They partied all night,And both looked good together.

This went fine,Till both went back to their kins,Who hated to see these two together.

Families got in between,And created a rift,Between Jack and Jill,And both were left heart broken.

General elections this year are different. Our netas have gone hi-tech. Hope you’ve noticed that most candidates have their own websites and many use SMS to reach the voters. Most parties are talking about development while suppressing issues like caste, dynasty etc.(seems like we’re maturing as a democracy). Also, this time media played a very vital role in turning around the election wave. Remember the radio spot – vote ka dot hai to hot hai.

Anyway, my point here was different.

This time business houses too were cashing in on the elections. Last weekend, capital’s popular pub F-Bar and Lounge had invited all youngsters, who have voted and carried the vote mark, to walkin for free and party for no expenses paid at all.(Those who don’t know, F Bar and Lounge is famous pub and nightclub at The Ashok).

Other than this, a retail shop in South Extension, Part II offered discounts up to 20% to all those who had voted. This retailing units deals in men’s wear and hosts popular brands like Allen Solley, Louis Vitton etc. (Will try to get a photo for this shop).

There should be many more places offering such offers/discounts. If you know of any, please add to the list in the comments section.
